Reborn, Chen Jingming calmly pieces together the truth and discovers that Qin Kai, a key employee he personally promoted, has long been conspiring with his wife, Xu Manzhen, to steal patents and seize the company's shares. Qin Kai even hides inside a companion robot prototype, secretly infiltrating their home to steal research and development materials. When his mother-in-law plans to hold a blessing ceremony for the robot, Chen Jingming plays along and uses testing and maintenance as an excuse to launch an inspection. Inside the sealed robot, temperature-control tests and component inspections are carried out one after another, leaving Qin Kai trapped inside in unbearable torment, repeatedly coming close to being exposed.
